Going Solo

Don’t mind me, I’m just posting today to shatter the notion that RVing is only a game for 2 or more players. A dear friend of mine is interested in taking his camper out but wondered what it must look like if he did it alone. I assured him that there is plenty of solo camping going on. For whatever reason that people are alone, there is no reason why they shouldn’t enjoy RVing. I have met those who have lost their spouse, divorced, haven’t settled down, don’t want to settle down and just out for a weekend away while their SO is off doing their own thing. (Even couples that thoroughly enjoy each other need a break too.)

Pretty much every social site on the internet has a section for RVing. Facebook pages, Google+ communities, Yahoo Groups, IRC… if it is out there RVers are there. Your mileage may vary with these groups and I have to say it — use common sense and stay safe when using ANY online forum.

Anyhow, I promised I would do some research for him and decided that if he had these questions, certainly others may as well. So here I am sharing, what can I say, I’m a giver.

http://www.rvsingles.org/ Membership is US$60 a year and you must be legally single; you do not have to own an RV but when you travel with the group you must be in a vehicle in which you can eat, sleep, cook, bathe and go to the toilet.

If you are worried about little things like taking pictures alone at cool sites or what people will think when they see you having a blast by yourself I suggest you grab your selfie stick and these socks, and go enjoy this fabulous rock we call home.

Raised in a military family, Lehnanne moved around a lot and that is probably why she likes to move around as an adult. She and Michael have been full-time RVers since 2007. Their home is run for the safety and comfort of the fur-Kidds.
